For months now, anyone driving past Goose Creek Village at the intersection of Belmont Ridge Road and Sycolin Road in Ashburn has noticed all the construction going on. There’s a new building going up between Boston’s Restaurant and Passion Fin. Across the street, there’s a mammoth project underway.
We’ve been trying for months to get answers, but the developer has been tight lipped. Nevertheless, here’s what we can tell you. Please refer to the graphic below and we’ll walk you thought it.
North of Sycolin, you see buildings labeled 5/6 and 7. Building 5/6 is where Parrando’s and Chopathi are located. Building 7 is where Boston’s is located. To the west, you’ll see Building 8. This building has been under construction for months and is nearly finished.
As The Burn has reported before, part of the space will become an animal hospital. It’s called Goose Creek Veterinary Hospital and it’s tentatively scheduled to open in March. Meanwhile, another space in the building is being marketed as a potential site for a brewery with an outdoor beer garden, but there’s no word that the developer has actually found a brewery to go there.
Finally, Building 9/10 on the graphic will be built in the future and contain additional retail space.
On the south side of Sycolin, there are already several existing office buildings, a church and a daycare. It appears many more buildings are under construction there. These are some of the foundations passers-by can see today.
It appears at least three of these buildings will have retail space on the ground floor and 230 apartments above them. There’s also supposed to be a parking garage. The project is called The Heights at Goose Creek Village.
The plans also appear to call for a hotel on the site, an amphitheater, a small park and a civic building. Clearly, the relatively tiny Goose Creek complex we know today is about to get a lot bigger and a lot more lively, so stay tuned. (Below are some additional marketing images to show you the developer’s vision. Ignore the store names — those are just pretend to give potential tenants an idea.)
Hopefully some of that retail space is taken by places people actually go to…and not like the “Dollar store” or the other random dentists offices seen at every other town center in this area. A great model would be Fairfax Corner or PIke&Rose.
Looking forward to another Starbucks and Five Below in the area.
A Starbucks is definitely needed! Long overdue. Where there’s Starbucks, there’s lots of business flowing in. 🙂
A Dunkin Donut or Pete’s Coffee would be welcomed
Who are the Developers?
Maybe a Bank of America and good breakfast spot similar to Eggspectations or Famous Toastery!
They need add a sidewalk on Belmont Ridge and Sycolin Road to connect the preserve at goose creek and goose creek 1
We need more Indian and kabob restaurants
I am one of the 92 townhouse resident (Left lower corner in your first top picture). There is a bridge on sycolin rd from “92 Town houses” to Goose creek village center. Are they going to add sidewalk on the bridge so I can walk with my baby to the Goose creek village center?
A major issue with all these centers going up, lack of parking. How/why does county allow that? you have 40-50 shops and very few parking spaces, add in each shop has 5-20 employees working. Loudoun One and village of Leesburg same. They did put up parking garages but even they fill up because people living there park in retail spots.
Try dat. Loudoun One doesn’t stop growing and now the housing is swallowing up all the spots around the Alamo draft house.
Awesome sauce !
At least it’s not a data center…..
Remember seeing some planning info some years ago, that there may be a subway metro station installed at the intersection of 659 and 267 Greenway, anyone knows anything about it?
could there be a movie theater
